Mysterious billboards have started appearing in Israel, prodding former Prime Minister Ehud Barak to run again. He ruined the labor party and wrecked the Left, but is he now the best hope we’ve got?

All songs by Adir L.C., mostly off his newest album Oceanside Cities:

Dinosaur
Hung Over
Same Big Ring
Buyer’s Instinct
